Initial start-up of the pod can be slow, especially when doing an upgrade with a slow filesystem. Rather than increasing the initialDelaySeconds on the liveness/readiness probes, the recommended approach would be to use a startup probe.

I added a startupProbe that defaults to disabled (as I didn't want to presumptively change existing behavior). The startup probe has a default failure time of 10m (60 failures @ 10s intervals) and copies the initialDelaySeconds of the existing liveness and readiness probes.

Hopefully this is useful to someone else, and let me know if you want any changes!
